TS1001 Touch Screen Arming Station Installation Manual
Mounting on a surface
When surface mounting, you may use either the top cable entry knockout or the
rear cable entry, depending on whether the cabling is external or internal to the
wall. Figure 9 on page 21 is a template for surface mounting.
To install the RAS:
1. Remove the two body retaining screws (Figure 1 on page 1, item 7), and set
aside for reuse.
2. Pull the bottom of the body away from the base to disengage the tabs at the
top, and then remove the body assembly from the base assembly.
3. Use the mounting template to locate the surface mount screw holes, and to
locate the rear cable entry (if used).
Take care that the tamper lever (Figure 3 on page 5, item 3) will be
depressed when the RAS is mounted.
4. Prepare the mounting holes in the mounting surface, as appropriate to the
type of surface.
5. If rear cable entry is required, cut a hole in the mounting surface for cable
access.
6. Use suitable screws to mount the base assembly to the surface.
7. Set the RAS address using DIP switches 1 through 4 (see
“DIP switches” on
page 8).
8. Set the LAN termination using DIP switch 8, if required (see
“DIP switches” on
page 8).
9. Terminate the cabling.
Note:
All power should be turned off to the Challenger
panel before wiring the RAS.
10. Hook the top of the body onto the mounting tabs on the base, and then swing
the bottom of the body into position to align the retaining screw holes at the
bottom.
11. Replace the two body retaining screws to secure the body to the base.
Flush mounting in a cavity
When flush mounting use the rear cable entry and the plasterboard mounting
bracket (supplied). Figure 10 on page 22 is a template for flush mounting.
Figure 5 on page 7 shows the arrangement of the plasterboard mounting bracket
inside a prepared wall cavity.
Tip:
As an alternative to drilling holes in the plasterboard for the self -tapping
mounting screws to pass though, you may prefer to notch the plasterboard. In
either case, ensure the holes or notches will be completely covered when the
RAS is mounted.
